Sahika (pronounced sha HE ka) is a true sweetheart. But when she arrived wearing a black leather jacket I was anxious to create a bad girl look. We headed to Mine & Yours boutique and found the perfect leather skirt. Sahika has performed on stage as an actress and dancer but she modeled for me as a favor. She’ll be attending an Event Management program in the Fall to supplement her bachelor’s degree. PS. Sahika doesn’t smoke. The cigarette was a prop for the shoot!
